Whatcha Been Up To?

It is great to see you here at the Thursday Linky Party. I love hearing/seeing/reading about all your escapades, so please link up.

This week, I have been finishing off the Sewing Machine cover for Sew Sew Modern 3 swap... I'll show you more of that just as soon as I manage to take some half decent pics.

I also made some plus blocks for the Mo Stash Bee. Gina asked us for plus blocks made using the brilliant photo tutorial pic {see below} by Rachel aka Wooden Spoon {she is uber talented and I always love her gorgeous makes}.

More low volume and brights...

Here are the blocks I made:-

I have some big plans for the coming week... If it were only possible, I would love to whip up a word cushion or quilt {see yesterday's Oof post}...

Utterly inspired by Cara from Pink Stitches blog and her utterly gorgeous version, I have also set my sights on making an Aeroplane Bag. I bought the pattern and ordered some supplies from U-Handbag. I couldn't find all the correct ingredients in the UK as set out in the actual pattern. Any tips??? I am not sure what the Soft and Stable doodah is but I can't get it so I need to improvise.

Those blocks make me feel a need for a low volume charm swap! Try this link for a handy interfacing comparison chart http://www.cottonpatch.co.uk/acatalog/copy_of_Interfacings__fusibles_and_stabilisers_comparison_chart.htmlI got all mine from there for my aeroplane bag but it wasn't cheap!

This reminds me I haven't posted a blog post for some time! I will write one up and link up. Love your low volume blocks - I really need to build up my low volume stash - I am a little late to the table I realise!
